The station is located along an LTA branch line that splits from the [[3/8 Broker Line]] north of [[Huntington Street LTA|Huntington Street station]]. The stop possesses the standard side platform setup seen all over LTA's elevated train stations. It is the only stub/terminal station in the system which otherwise operates in a continuous loop. The station leaves the main line at a level cross T-junction; it would be possible for a train to reenter service towards either [[Francis International Airport LTA|Francis International Airport]] or [[Huntington Street LTA|Huntington Street]]. Likewise a train coming from FIA (towards Huntington) or from Huntington St (towards the Airport) could terminate there.

The closure is reinforced with the presence of fences, barricades, scaffolding and maintenance equipment on the platforms and lines;inaddition, no trains stop at the station.

Curiously, in the [[Vlad Glebov]] mission "[[Clean Getaway]]", the subway train you take as part of the mission ''does'' stop at the Dukes Boulevard station. This may be due to the fact that this mission is one of the first in the game and the station has probably not been closed for renovations yet. Although you never actually see the train pull up there, you spawn on the platform after the subway ride cutscene ends. There also aren't any fences, maintenance signs, or equipment at the station in this mission, so that the station seems to be in use. The station is referred to by Vlad during the opening cutscene of the game as [[East Island City|E.I.C. Station]].
